The present disclosure relates to the technical field of fitness equipment, and specifically to an adjustable dumbbell.
As conventional fitness equipment, dumbbells have the limitation of fixed weight during exercise and thus cannot meet the requirements of different training stages and goals. In order to solve this problem, adjustable dumbbells emerge. The adjustable dumbbells can adjust the weight to meet the requirements of different training intensities and have the better applicability. An adjustable dumbbell mainly includes a holding rod assembly and a counterweight assembly, where the counterweight assembly mainly includes dumbbell plates, a plurality of dumbbell plate mounting positions adjacently arranged are arranged at each of two ends of the holding rod assembly, and the holding rod assembly is provided with a telescopic rod capable of extending to the dumbbell plate mounting positions. A number of dumbbell plates mounted is changed through the extension of the telescopic rod to adjust the weight of the dumbbell. The adjustable dumbbells not only can provide flexible training modes, but also provide users with personalized fitness experience.
However, the existing adjustable dumbbell has great defects during use. In the existing adjustable dumbbell, the telescopic rod configured to mount the dumbbell plates is adjusted in a nut and lead screw mode, such that a low transmission efficiency is resulted, and nuts and lead screws are loosened and cannot be used due to severe wear of threads on the nuts and the lead screws after long-term use. In the existing adjustable dumbbell, the telescopic rod configured to mount the dumbbell plates is easy to jam, resulting in insufficiently smooth and reliable weight adjustment of the dumbbell. Gear positions for adjusting the weight of the existing adjustable dumbbell are not clear enough, such that the dumbbell is liable to be in a neutral state. There is a situation where the dumbbell plates are not completely mounted, which easily leads to falling of the dumbbell plates, such that the use is not safe and reliable enough. An adjustment function of the existing adjustable dumbbell needs to be locked manually before use, and the weight adjustment function needs to be enabled again during weight adjustment, such that the use is not convenient enough, and during use for training, it is easy to forget to lock the weight adjustment function to cause accidents.

The anti-collision groove 203 is provided on the dumbbell base 2, such that a sufficient distance is kept between the top of the dumbbell base 2 and the handle 401 of the dumbbell, thus avoiding the situation where the hand of the user is pinched by the dumbbell base 2 and the handle 401 of the dumbbell during the placement of the dumbbell, reducing the accidental injuries, and making the dumbbell safer to use. Through the arrangement of the unlocking ejection blocks 204, the weight of the dumbbell can be adjusted as long as the dumbbell is put back on the dumbbell base 2 after training, such that the step of manually unlocking the weight adjustment of the dumbbell is omitted, and the convenience in weight adjustment of the dumbbell is further improved. In addition, once the dumbbell is removed from the dumbbell base 2, the limit blocks 8 are not supported by the unlocking ejection blocks 204 and pushed directly into the locking grooves 901 by the locking springs 801, such that the step of manually locking the weight adjustment of the dumbbell is omitted, the convenience in weight adjustment of the dumbbell is further improved, and the occurrence of accidents caused by the user forgetting to lock the dumbbell weight adjustment function can be avoided, thus further improving the reliability of the dumbbell in use. Then, the handle 401 is rotated to drive the two dial plates 507 to rotate; and according to fitness requirements, the required weight indicating scales on the dial plates 507 are rotated to be aligned with the marking grooves 506 on the fixing disks 505. During the process of rotating the two dial plates 507, the two internal gear rings 508 are driven to rotate and drive the two telescopic sleeves 403 by the two gear sets 509 to move away from the handle 401, and the two telescopic sleeves 403 penetrate through the corresponding number of the dumbbell plates 3 from the expansion chutes 502 based on the rotational amplitudes of the dial plates 507. According to the dumbbell, the dial plate 507 with the scales and the fixing disk 505 with the marking groove 506 are arranged between the handle 401 and the internal gear ring 508, and the scales on the dial plate 507 are matched with the marking groove 506 on the fixing disk 505, such that the required weight can be conveniently selected and adjusted, and the user can align a specific scale on the dial plate 507 with the marking groove 506 as needed, thereby achieving the precise weight adjustment. In addition, the scales on the dial plate 507 are matched with the marking groove 506 on the fixing disk 505, such that it can be effectively ensured that the extension length of the telescopic sleeve 403 can be corresponding to the integral multiple of the thickness of the dumbbell plates 3, the situation where the dumbbell plates 3 are not completely fixed by the telescopic sleeve 403 can be effectively avoided, and the situation where the dumbbell plates 3 fall off can be effectively avoided, thus further improving the safety of the dumbbell in use. Finally, the handle 401 is held with a hand and the dumbbell body 1 is lifted up. The dumbbell plates 3 penetrated by the telescopic sleeves 403 are fixed to the dumbbell clamp assemblies 5 because the diameter of the telescopic sleeves 403 is greater than the width of the clamping grooves 301 on the dumbbell plates 3, moreover, the limit blocks 8 are not squeezed by the unlocking ejection blocks 204 and fall back into the locking grooves 901 of the rotary tables 9 under the elastic force of the locking springs 801 to lock the rotary tables 9 for preventing rotation of the rotary tables 9, and the internal gear rings 508, the dial plates 507, and the handle 401 are all kept in a locked state by locking the rotary tables 9, such that the user is capable of making exercise according to an adjusted weight. Because the diameter of the telescopic sleeves 403 is greater than the width of the clamping grooves 301, the dumbbell plates 3 can be fixed to the limit racks 501 after the telescopic sleeves 403 penetrate through the expanded holes 302; the limit racks 501 are placed in the clamping grooves 301, and the telescopic sleeves 403 penetrate through the expanded holes 302 to fix the dumbbell plates, such that it can be ensured that the dumbbell plates 3 are firmly connected to the limit racks 501, thus avoiding the situation where the dumbbell plates 3 are loosened or separated; and the arrangement of the clamping grooves 301 and the expanded holes 302 makes the dumbbell plates 3 more convenient and easier to mount, thus providing convenience for the weight adjustment of the dumbbell. No matter how to rotate the handle 401, the limit block 8 is always kept in a state of being corresponding to one of the locking grooves 901 on the rotary table 9 as long as the weight adjustment of the dumbbell is in the gear position; the limit blocks 8 are squeezed by elastic force of the locking springs 801 to be inserted into the locking grooves 901, such that the rotary table 9 can be fixed; the internal gear rings 508 and the handle 401 are not rotatable by fixing the rotary tables 9, and then the telescopic sleeves 403 are not movable, such that the number of the dumbbell plates 3 mounted on the dumbbell is fixed, thus achieving the purpose of locking the required weight of the dumbbell; moreover, the handle 401 is not rotatable by fixing the rotary tables 9, and the dumbbell does not slide when the user lifts up the dumbbell by the handle 401, such that it is ensured that the user can hold the dumbbell more firmly, thus improving the reliability of the dumbbell in use.
